You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

  1. What do you want to achieve? A textbox selling system

  2. What solutions have you tried so far? I’ve looked on the devfourm and nothing shows up

						if tonumber(Screen.HowMuchToSell.Text) > Found[Find.Name].Amount then
							Screen.HowMuchToSell.Text = math.clamp(Screen.HowMuchToSell.Text,1,Found[Find.Name].Amount)
						end
-- Sell Part
local function Sell(Screen, Find, instance, CommonUI, HowMuchSelling)
	Screen.Enter.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
		Screen.Enabled = false
		print(HowMuchSelling)
		print(Found[Find.Name].Amount)
		Found.HowMuchToSell.TextEditable = false
		if tonumber(Find.PrimaryPart.Parent:GetAttribute("Amount")) or Found[Find.Name].Amount <= not 0 then
			
			
			local MoneyGiven = tonumber(Find.PrimaryPart.Parent:GetAttribute("Value")) * HowMuchSelling
			game.ReplicatedStorage.MoneyIncrease:FireServer(MoneyGiven,"Money")
			Found[Find.Name].Amount =- HowMuchSelling
			print(Found[Find.Name].Amount)
			Find.PrimaryPart.Parent:SetAttribute("Amount",- HowMuchSelling)
			Find.Parent.Parent.AmountLeft.Text = Found[Find.Name].Amount
			if tonumber(Find.PrimaryPart.Parent:GetAttribute("Amount")) == 0 or Found[Find.Name].Amount == 0 then
				
				
				instance.Parent:Destroy()
				Screen.Enabled = false
				Screen.HowMuchToSell.Text = "1"
				Screen.HowMuchWorth.Text = "1337 C"
			else
				
				
				Screen.Enabled = false
				Screen.HowMuchToSell.Text = "1"
				Screen.HowMuchWorth.Text = "1337 C"
			end
		end
	end)
end

Do you mean by textbox selling system that you type something a textbox and searches for the item you want to sell?

#3

What do you mean by a textbox selling system. Please give us more detail. Thanks.

#4

I mean like for example in a simulator you sell your bag for money but I want it where you can sell your own amount

#5

The code works a little but it always makes the amount of “coins” in my bag -1 and I didn’t put an amount that made it go to it. Basically it spams the amount I put inside the textbox

#6

I’m noob at scripting but can you try that?

#7

All your doing is changing <= 0 to <= 1, that won’t fix the spamming as it’s basically the same thing, and I tested it same problem. Thanks for trying

#8

the amount of “coins” in my bag -1 and I didn’t put an amount that made it go to it

So basically the number became negative or something ??

#9

Yea so basically I put a number inside a textbox pressed enter and then the amount of coins went to -

#10

Maybe try to use math.abs.it will change the negative number to positive

#11

Not what I’m trying to do, I’m trying to make it where it changes my bag amount - the amount I put inside the textbox, but it spams the number to make the bag amount to -

#12

Okayyyy…so are there any error??

#13

#14

#16 
Find.PrimaryPart.Parent:SetAttribute("Amount", Find.PrimaryPart.Parent:GetAttribute("Amount") -  HowMuchSelling)
#17 
if tonumber(Find.PrimaryPart.Parent:GetAttribute("Amount")) or Found[Find.Name].Amount <= not 0 then

It checks if Amount or the amount from the table is = or less than 0, oops forgot to get rid of not
